Welcome to the Street Prophets Coffee Hour cleverly hidden at the intersection of religion, art, science, food, and politics. This is an open thread where we can share our thoughts and comments about the day. Let’s start by looking at some Oregon Jasper in the Rice Northwest Museum of Rocks and Minerals in Hillsboro, Oregon.
According to the Museum:
“Jasper is an impure, fine-grained quartz, of any color, that cannot be seen through. It is often red, brown, or green but can be the lighter colors white, yellow, gray called chert or flint. The color is from iron oxides and clay minerals. Jasper makes beautiful patterns, swirls, orbs, in an array of colors.”
